Dear Mr. Allen:

Enclosed please find copy of the new booklet which we have just published
and which we are offering to you as heretofore, without charge, as our
contribution to public health education.

Developed in collaboration with eminent authorities in the fields of
orthopedics and physical training, this booklet will prove timely for use
during and after National Posture Week, which will be observed this year
by schools, colleges and health groups throughout the nation the week of
May 3rd to 8th.

We feel that the fifth annual observance of National Posture Week will
prove more significant than ever to wartime America. Today, more
emphasis than ever is being placed upon good posture as an essential
factor in our Nation's well being. That is why National Posture Week
pecomes more far-reaching and significant than at any time since its
inception -- why this year it should be of more than usual interest to
you in augmenting your own physical fitness program and in promoting
and maintaining public health.

In addition to the enclosed booklet, we have created a series of attrac-
tive full color posters which will be issued to educational, medical,
industrial and other groups. The one available for educators has been
approved by government and educational authorities and will be sent to
edueators who request the booklets. The poster is dramatic and inspiring.
Size 18" x 24%", it is reproduced in four colors and is captioned - "Good
Posture for Health and Country -- FITNESS FOR VICTORY!"

In view of conditions, we must ask that request for your supply of book-
lets and posters be sent by return mail.
